Review from Tabitha B (Mother of Child) published on 17 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with the care and support our daughter receives at this nursery. The staff are incredibly nurturing, caring, and genuinely invested in her wellbeing and development. From the moment she started, she has been made to feel safe and loved.
Communication has been excellent. We are always kept informed about her progress, daily activities, and any important updates. The team are approachable, friendly, and always willing to discuss any questions or concerns.
The SEN support has been absolutely amazing. The staff have taken the time to understand our daughter's individual needs and have adapted their approach to ensure she receives the best possible support. Their commitment, patience, and expertise have made a huge difference to her development and confidence. They work closely with us as parents and consistently go above and beyond to help her thrive.

We are so grateful for the dedication and care shown by the entire baby room team.

Reply from Kirsty Caswell, Manager at Finkley Down Farm Nursery & Pre-school Andover
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We are delighted to hear that your family has had such a positive experience with us.

Review from Emily S (Mother of Child) published on 21 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We honestly couldn't recommend this nursery enough. My two older children attended from the age of 2, and now my youngest started from just 9 months old as one of the first babies to use the baby room.
Naturally, I was quite apprehensive about leaving her at such a young age, but the staff have been absolutely brilliant and she settled so quickly. It's clear how caring, nurturing, and attentive the team are with all the children.
Communication has always been excellent - we are kept updated regularly and the staff are always approachable and supportive. It's such a lovely feeling knowing your children are happy, safe, and genuinely cared for.
With the added access to the farm and all of the trips out the children do, I truly feel its excellent value for money.

Thank you to all the team for everything you do for our children!

Reply from Kirsty Caswell, Manager at Finkley Down Farm Nursery & Pre-school Andover

Thank you so much for such a lovely review. Reading this genuinely means so much to us, especially knowing we have been part of all three of your children's journeys over the years.

I know how huge it is leaving your baby at nursery, particularly at just 9 months old, so it is so lovely to hear...

Overall Experience

My baby has only been there a month and is thriving. She now toddles through the door , welcomed with a smile by staff and management and has progressed very well in the short time she has been there. Her Makaton skills have progressed immensely since beginning and they have been so so helpful in guiding, supporting and accommodating the needs of my baby's new found allergies in her diet. I could not think of a better nursery for my daughter to grow and develop !

Reply from Kirsty Caswell, Manager at Finkley Down Farm Nursery & Pre-school Andover
Thank you so much for your lovely review.
We're so pleased to hear how well your little one has settled and how happy she is coming in each day - that means everything to us. It's wonderful to see her confidence and Makaton skills growing so quickly.

We're also really glad you feel supported...

Overall Experience
The baby room is a warm, welcoming and nurturing environment where little ones are clearly cared for with genuine love and attention. The space is always clean, well organised and thoughtfully set up with age-appropriate activities that support development through play.
The staff are kind, patient and attentive, taking the time to understand each child's individual needs and routines. It's clear there is a strong focus on creating a safe and stimulating environment where babies can explore, learn and grow with confidence.

Communication is always good, youre always greeted by management at the door and I feel reassured knowing my child is happy, settled and well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the baby room to other parents looking for a caring and supportive setting for their little ones.

Overall Experience

Outstanding Nursery With Endless Activities!!

All three of my children have attended this nursery, and I couldn't be happier with the experience they've had. From day one, they were welcomed with warmth, patience, and genuine enthusiasm from the staff. Each of my kids settled in quickly and always came home happy.

What really sets this nursery is the variety of activities they offer every single day. Whether it's creative arts, outdoor play, sensory exploration, farm trips, etc the list goes on. My children were constantly learning, discovering, and having fun - and it showed in their happiness.

The team here truly understands how to nurture children as individuals. They communicate well and create an environment where kids feel safe and comfortable .

I'm incredibly grateful for the positive impact Finkley Down Farm Nursery has had on all three of my little ones. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a place where their child will thrive.

Reply from Kirsty Caswell, Nursery Manager at Finkley Down Farm Nursery & Pre-school Andover

Thank you so much for this lovely review Emilia. It really captures everything our practitioners strive to achieve for the children in our care. Hearing that all three of your children settled so well, enjoyed the wide variety of activities, and came home happy means the world to our whole team....

Overall Experience

Finkley Nursery is so wonderful. The care and compassion they have for the children's wellbeing are outstanding. My niece absolutely loves attending Finkley and hates going home at the end of the day. For the children to have the outdoor area to learn and play and being next to the farm where they can learn about all the animals is truly amazing for the children's development and caring nature. All the staff who work here and care for the children, cannot do enough for these children and work tirelessly and effortlessly to ensure their individual needs are met while ensuring their safety and health are looked after at all times. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.

I was recently invited along to join my niece for a little gathering for Valentines day. We had the loveliest time together.

It was so nice to be welcomed into my nieces daily environment and to see the great opportunities the children get to experience.

Overall Experience

After moving both of my children from a previous setting to Finkley in September, they have both thrived in every aspect with their learning and development. It has been fantastic to see everything they get up to and hear all the wonderful stories in the evenings about their day. Communication between my family and staff have always been brilliant and both my children absolutely adore their key workers alongside the other brilliant staff members they spend their day with.

Overall Experience

Over the past month, my child has been attending Finkley Down Farm Nursery. I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first day, the staff have been welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about creating a nurturing, home from home environment for the children with the added bonus of a farm! Every day brings exciting opportunities for little ones. They have the most amazing balance between education and play. The activities are thoughtfully planned.

The staff go above and beyond to communicate with parents, providing regular updates and photos of the day's activities. It's clear they take the time to truly understand each child's individual needs and strengths. If you're looking for a nursery that, encourages exploration, choices and builds strong foundations for early learning then I highly recommend Finkley Down Farm Nursery.

Amazing nursery - five-star. My son started at Finkley Down Farm Nursery & Pre-school only a few months ago and has settled instantly - he loves it! This is, without question, down to the amazing staff who genuinely care and love their job. He has formed amazing bonds with the staff already, in particular his key workers who have invested in learning about my son and indulging his interests. He runs into nursery in the morning, eager to see his friends and have fun. The setting itself is seriously impressive - no wonder he enjoys it so much. Communication is excellent from the nursery with daily updates and photos. As a parent, I could not be happier to have secured him this start in life. Thanks team Finkley.

Review from Aisha H (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot recommend Finkley Down Farm Nursery highly enough! First of all - what other nursery do you know that has a farm, a soft play, and all these amazing facilities every day? I wish every child had access to an experience like this.

The staff are incredibly kind, caring, and dedicated - it's clear that they are happy and satisfied with their jobs and are well looked after. With other nurseries having a high turnover of staff, Finkley has a team that stays with them for years - that says it all. My daughter adores her key worker who has gone above and beyond to really personalise her experience and support her journey.

The communication with parents is also outstanding. We get a comprehensive handover each day, along with photos uploaded on the app so we can see what our little one has been up to. They highly deserve their Ofsted Outstanding rating. Our daughter is very happy here and we would highly recommend it to anyone as the best nursery in the area.

Reply from Charlie Edwards, Nursery Manager at Finkley Down Farm Nursery & Pre-school Andover

Thank you so much for the 5* review! We absolutely love having your daughter with us, and are so proud of all the experiences we are able to provide her whilst at our setting.
